The last light on the desk

Sample article Reading preview

The room had fallen quiet, but the little pool of light on the desk felt like a kind of promise. It wasn’t just the end of the day — it was an invitation to pay attention, to finish what mattered, to close the loop on a scattered mind.

In a world that rewards constant movement, there is real power in staying, even if it’s only for a few more pages.

The desk was cluttered, as always, but the essentials were there: a notebook, a pen, and the next thing to read.

Four ways into your library

Open a chapter to see how it works.

I Chrome extension Toolbar button

Save from the page you’re on

Click the toolbar button to save the article without the ads and banners around it. Or save just the lines you selected, or a full-page screenshot, and add a label before you close the tab.

  • Save for readingCleaned article, unread in your Inbox
  • CaptureOnly the text you selected, highlighted
  • ScreenshotThe full page as an image
II Email inbox Your own address

Newsletters go to your library, not your mail

Every account gets a private ReadMeliora address. Subscribe with it or forward an issue, and it lands in your Inbox, labeled Newsletter and ready to read.

  • Private addressCopy it from Settings › Emails
  • Allowed sendersOnly addresses you allow get through
  • AttachmentsPDF, Word, Markdown and images saved as files
III RSS feeds Feed URL

Follow feeds without opening another app

Paste a site’s feed address and its latest posts arrive in your library, labeled RSS. Read the ones you want; the rest wait quietly.

  • SubscribePaste any RSS or Atom feed
  • One placeNew posts join your library, labeled RSS
  • UnsubscribeOne click in Settings › Feeds
IV Phone app Share sheet

Share into it from any app on your phone

Install ReadMeliora to your Android home screen, then share links, text, or files to it from any app. Shared while signed out? It waits until you log in.

  • InstallOpens like an app, not a lost tab
  • Share targetLink, selection, or file in one step
  • OfflineRecently opened articles stay readable

Then read it all in one clean column, with focus mode, highlights, and notes.

Your library, on your terms

Nothing you save is stuck here. Bring it in, take it out, and leave whenever you like.

No lock-in

Leave any time: delete your account yourself, from Settings › Account.

Bring it in Work in progress

Import your library from another read-later app. Labels and highlights come too, where the export has them.

  • Omnivore
  • Linkwarden
  • Pocket
  • Instapaper
  • Readwise Reader
  • Raindrop
  • Wallabag
  • Browser bookmarks

Omnivore and Linkwarden are tested with real exports. The others follow each app’s export format but haven’t been tried on a real one yet. If an import goes wrong, send us the file from the Import page and we’ll help you bring your library in and fix the importer.

Take it out

Export everything whenever you like, in formats other apps understand. Or script it with your API key.

  • Full backup
  • Links as CSV
  • Bookmarks HTML
  • Markdown for Obsidian & Logseq
  • Highlights as CSV
  • API

  • Listen New

    Hear articles, newsletters and PDFs read aloud, and pick up where you stopped.

  • Highlights

    Mark the lines that matter, add a note, and find them all in one place.

  • Search

    Find a line you half remember in anything you’ve saved.

  • Labels

    Sort things as you save them, in colours you choose.

  • Offline reading

    Recently opened articles still open without a connection.

  • Focus mode

    Hide everything but the words, so it’s just you and the page.

  • Keyboard shortcuts

    Move through your library and the reader without the mouse.

  • Duplicates

    Save something twice and both copies are kept and marked.

  • Uploads

    Add PDFs, Word documents, Markdown, text files and images, and read them alongside everything else.

Integrations

Take your library to the tools you already use.

  • Supernote Plugin

    Read your Inbox, or the labels you pick, on a Manta or Nomad, laid out for e-ink. Highlights, progress and what you mark read sync back.

  • Obsidian Work in progress

    Your highlights and notes sync into your Obsidian vault, and stay up to date as you add more.
